Cant't wait to go over the car and complete all the "stage 0" checks.
This is a wonderful site! I have to retire my beloved Volvo 245 of 21 yrs, but found a 1995 Turbo (57 engine code) with only 115,00miles. Only $2000. Good body, CarFax checks out OK. Once I'm done with basics, I plan to get shocks and sway bars from IPD. From there I will get ECU upgrade along with sport tuned exhaust. Any advice in this dept will be greatly appreciated! I love this site! David in Saratoga, CA. Where's the next GTG?
Just picked-up my first 850 Turbo. 1995 (engine code 57)

Welcome to MVS.
Good luck with your 850.
Sounds like it's in great shape.

Now replacing the passenger axle I got from "Raxles" Marty is the man!
No china junk! Next I plan to complete the PVC sytem with the kit from Groton, as I noticed some leakage from the front main seal.
